Priest and Premier Fan ont.

QUEBEC, Can, Oct. 1s.-Quite ripple
of excitement has been caused here by the
refusal of Cardinal Taschereau to accept
the invitation of the Premier and Mrs.
Mercier to their reception to be rendered
ministers attending the inter-provincial
conference here next week. His eminence
not only refused himself, but has advised
his priests to absent themselves. This
action of prince of the church is of course
traced to recent unpleasantness between
him and the premier over the Jesuits' bill,
when incorporation was granted in de-
fiance of the cardinals wishes. 1t is said
that dancing was specially omitted from
the programme in order that the cardinal
and priests might be present.
